/**
 *
 * <p>This class contains the logic for coercing data types before
 * operators are applied to them.
 *
 * <p>The following is the list of rules applied for various type
 * conversions.
 *
 * <ul><pre>
 * Applying arithmetic operator
 *   Binary operator - A {+,-,*} B
 *     if A and B are null
 *       return 0
 *     if A or B is BigDecimal, coerce both to BigDecimal and then:
 *       if operator is +, return <code>A.add(B)</code>
 *       if operator is -, return <code>A.subtract(B)</code>
 *       if operator is *, return <code>A.multiply(B)</code>
 *     if A or B is Float, Double, or String containing ".", "e", or "E"
 *       if A or B is BigInteger, coerce both A and B to BigDecimal and apply operator
 *       coerce both A and B to Double and apply operator
 *     if A or B is BigInteger, coerce both to BigInteger and then:
 *       if operator is +, return <code>A.add(B)</code>
 *       if operator is -, return <code>A.subtract(B)</code>
 *       if operator is *, return <code>A.multiply(B)</code>
 *     otherwise
 *       coerce both A and B to Long
 *       apply operator
 *     if operator results in exception (such as divide by 0), error
 * 
 *   Binary operator - A {/,div} B
 *     if A and B are null
 *       return 0
 *     if A or B is a BigDecimal or BigInteger, coerce both to BigDecimal and
 *      return <code>A.divide(B, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP)</code>
 *     otherwise
 *       coerce both A and B to Double
 *       apply operator
 *     if operator results in exception (such as divide by 0), error
 * 
 *   Binary operator - A {%,mod} B
 *     if A and B are null
 *       return 0
 *     if A or B is BigDecimal, Float, Double, or String containing ".", "e" or "E"
 *       coerce both to Double
 *       apply operator
 *     if A or B is BigInteger, coerce both to BigInteger and return
 *      <code>A.remainder(B)</code>
 *     otherwise
 *       coerce both A and B to Long
 *       apply operator
 *     if operator results in exception (such as divide by 0), error
 * 
 *   Unary minus operator - -A
 *     if A is null
 *       return 0
 *     if A is BigInteger or BigDecimal, return <code>A.negate()</code>
 *     if A is String
 *       if A contains ".", "e", or "E"
 *         coerce to Double, apply operator
 *       otherwise
 *         coerce to a Long and apply operator
 *     if A is Byte,Short,Integer,Long,Float,Double
 *       retain type, apply operator
 *     if operator results in exception, error
 *     otherwise
 *       error
 *
 * Applying "empty" operator - empty A
 *   if A is null
 *     return true
 *   if A is zero-length String
 *     return true
 *   if A is zero-length array
 *     return true
 *   if A is List and ((List) A).isEmpty()
 *     return true
 *   if A is Map and ((Map) A).isEmpty()
 *     return true
 *   if A is Collection an ((Collection) A).isEmpty()
 *     return true
 *   otherwise
 *     return false
 * 
 * Applying logical operators
 *   Binary operator - A {and,or} B
 *     coerce both A and B to Boolean, apply operator
 *   NOTE - operator stops as soon as expression can be determined, i.e.,
 *     A and B and C and D - if B is false, then only A and B is evaluated
 *   Unary not operator - not A
 *     coerce A to Boolean, apply operator
 * 
 * Applying relational operator
 *   A {<,>,<=,>=,lt,gt,lte,gte} B
 *     if A==B
 *       if operator is >= or <=
 *         return true
 *       otherwise
 *         return false
 *     if A or B is null
 *       return false
 *     if A or B is BigDecimal, coerce both A and B to BigDecimal and use the
 *      return value of <code>A.compareTo(B)</code>
 *     if A or B is Float or Double
 *       coerce both A and B to Double
 *       apply operator
 *     if A or B is BigInteger, coerce both A and B to BigInteger and use the
 *      return value of <code>A.compareTo(B)</code>
 *     if A or B is Byte,Short,Character,Integer,Long
 *       coerce both A and B to Long
 *       apply operator
 *     if A or B is String
 *       coerce both A and B to String, compare lexically
 *     if A is Comparable
 *       if A.compareTo (B) throws exception
 *         error
 *       otherwise
 *         use result of A.compareTo(B)
 *     if B is Comparable
 *       if B.compareTo (A) throws exception
 *         error
 *       otherwise
 *         use result of B.compareTo(A)
 *     otherwise
 *       error
 * 
 * Applying equality operator
 *   A {==,!=} B
 *     if A==B
 *       apply operator
 *     if A or B is null
 *       return false for ==, true for !=
 *     if A or B is BigDecimal, coerce both A and B to BigDecimal and then:
 *       if operator is == or eq, return <code>A.equals(B)</code>
 *       if operator is != or ne, return <code>!A.equals(B)</code>
 *     if A or B is Float or Double
 *       coerce both A and B to Double
 *       apply operator
 *     if A or B is BigInteger, coerce both A and B to BigInteger and then:
 *       if operator is == or eq, return <code>A.equals(B)</code>
 *       if operator is != or ne, return <code>!A.equals(B)</code>
 *     if A or B is Byte,Short,Character,Integer,Long
